1. Well it appears that there is some irregularity was made while purchasing this proeprty by your seller.

2.Since in most of such cases the irregularities are mostly procedural in nature which is corrected by making penal payments.

3.However payment of fine or correcting the irregularities is governed by the rules of the local laws which differs in all states.

4SO refer to the rules and apply for regularisation. The vigilance has nothing to do with this.

5.If this does not help you then filing of writ petition remains your options.

You have no option but to approach higher authority to obtain sanction of building plans

2) before you approach higher authority pay the fine otherwise your application would be rejected

1. Some irregularity must have been conducted in the transaction.

2. The only remedy for you is to approach the competent higher authority. If the fine has not been paid then pay it now.

Dear Client,

When the disputed property is already approved with DTCP, what is the necessity of Panchayat permission. .

Under the given situation the best option is to first issue a legal notice to the Panchayat Secretary, get his refusal in writing and then approach court of law for relief and remedy.

You can mention in the suit that you are ready and willing to deposit the said penalty amount with the court since the Panchayat is refusing to accept the same.

Hello,

File a writ of mandamus in the HC and thereupon the HC will direct the panchayat secretary to give building permission since you are ready to pay the cost of open spaces.
